Traveling is a privilege, I didn’t learn that until college, when I had friend who couldn’t afford to fly back home for breaks, let alone vacation for spring break and summer

Not really. Your money is spent where you prioritize it. If you're flying using daddy's money, sure.

You do realize some people don’t have money to prioritize, it’s food, shelter, gas and nothing left over

The American dream 😂

Spend less money on shelter. Get a bicycle or smaller car. Food you eat anywhere.

If you want it, you can make it happen.

People just wanna bury their xenophobic heads up their own ass

What? If you live in the middle of no where, i went to school in rural VA hours from an airport, how tf is a bike going to help?? The working poor exist, and there sometimes aren’t bootstraps long enough to pull yourself up

You aren't biking to the airport 😂 you bike around town to reduce the gas costs that you said took up all your income.

It's a digital world. You aren't confined anymore.

My point is there is a way to increase your income and decrease your costs.

You don't need more than $2k to travel around Europe for a month.

Save a dollar a day and boom you can go to Europe pretty soon.

What you mean? I've literally been to Europe for a month and spent under $2k. It's not hard.
